Thanks for posting that article, TMF. An interesting item of information there is the number of PAX on the afflicted aircraft -- 446. Some reports listed 455 PAX on the A380's maiden flight. Neither is far short of the 470, or so, seats/suites on board.
Bottums Up
We'll need now to conduct a thorough investigation on the aircraft to make sure all the aircraft components at the landing gear level that have come into contact with the grass are okay.

Yes lets pick that one. I would say the incident in BKK was minor compared to the SIA accident in Taiwan when they took off on the wrong runway.
Oh yeah, then there was the SIA tail scrape in New Zealand.

I am always amazed how quick we are to point fingers at everyone else the minute something goes wrong. Ok so lets talk about going off the grass , tail scrapes , bla bla bla.

Just wait until something untoward were to happen to you and all the arm chair warriors offer their "expert opinions" kinda like CNN reporters saying how a " four seater piper cub crashed into school today"
